All too often, science and technology continue to be learned in isolation, in specialized classes, with very little carryover (beyond games) into the general education setting or home. The Wonder Workshop Robotics Classroom Packs will be an opportunity for a large number of young students to utilize and enjoy skills they need for the future in an arena that offers true collaboration with friends. Children will work in teams to both build and code robots to accomplish a task - moving through a basic maze. Giving girls, ELL students and Special Education students, in particular, a chance to work collaboratively enhances a teaching and learning lens of equity. The students will show how and what they've learned in a video format, which will be pushed out to families via connective software linking the families. Our team of 108 students and 4 teachers is a tight-knit one, and the plan is to implement a robotics unit in which all students will participate, leading to: oral language development as they talk and communicate; greater creative spacial reasoning as they visualize towards execution; and problem solving skills as they fail and retry over and over again in surroundings where they can feel comfortable taking risks. We also plan on enhancing the building and coding activities with shared reading and writing opportunities for the students to begin to comprehend how robotics can and will help our world and their future through innovation. Our students have never had a hands-on, leading-edge technology experience like this to try in a classroom environment. We are excited to give them a taste of the future as they begin to envision where and how they can make a positive impact on our shared world.
